Post by: TheJaylor on March 06, 2014, 06:01:56 PM: While King David is pretty cool, I'd have to go with Simon as he's awesome in stopping RBD, Nazareth, and so many other devastating cards. King David is decent but he's not the best.

Vote: Simon the Zealot

Post by: Redoubter on March 06, 2014, 06:33:53 PM: How many times have I laughed maniacally after saying "no" when my opponent does something as simple as say "I get to look at your hand"? Many, many times, and I remember them fondly.

Post by: Chris on March 08, 2014, 03:32:09 PM: King David is easily in my top 4 characters, and may edge out Oak as number one. Going with him.

And Simon is a glorified protect fort that cost you a rescue/battle challenge. Not worth it in T1 IMO. If your playing Simon your hoping to sneak him out of one battle to never use him again where as David is never a bad choice.

Post by: The Guardian on March 09, 2014, 12:50:44 PM: Yes always play King David over Simon. Always. Do not bother using Simon... ever. The world will be a better place trust me ;D
